Nintendo peaked at Gamecube

Nintendo peaked at Gamecube
prove me wrong

After it was the Wii, so I guess you're right

I'd say they peaked at SNES.

...

This

N64 was slightly worse than SNES

GC was slightly worse than N64

Wii was shit

I'd say all consoles before the Wii felt like they gave a shit about people who play video games

>GC was slightly worse than N64
Aside from Mario sunshine and double dash the Gamecube was far better than the N64

It's been a downward spiral since the NES.

Inb4 millennials that can't appreciate Nintendo's golden age because the games are too hardcore.

I didn't realize it at the time, but the GC/GBA era was a really great era for Nintendo. Lots of innovation, as opposed to the NSMB cookie cutter stuff we get today

I liked Double Dash more than 64

the gamecube was a piece of shit.

its entire library consisted of titles that were better on the N64.

this

virtualboy was the begin of the end
N64 was shit
GC was shit
Wii is just GC 1.5 and shit
Wii U is.... do I really REALLY need to go into this one?

All of you morons calling the Wii shit.

>Super Mario Galaxy
>Super Mario Galaxy 2
>Xenoblade Chronicles
>Super Smash Bros
>New Super Mario Bros Wii
>Skyward Sword
>twilight Princess
>Rayman origins


Niggers get fucked. Wii had some fantastic games, much more so than N64 and definitely much more than Gamecube.

they peaked at N64

N64 zeldas > cube zeldas
N64 startfox > cube starfox
mario 64 > sunshine

melees was better than smash 64 tho

>all these people ignoring handhelds
Nintendo peaked at DS. Solid system with loads of great games that offered something completely new. Great 3rd party support.

If you want to ignore handhelds their peak was the NES.

>>>Super Mario Galaxy
>>Super Mario Galaxy 2

>aka carpel tunnel the game

I'll take Sunshine and 64 any day of the week.

64 didn't have a metroid game so its shit

I've owned every console from Nintendo my whole life. And while each one has provided some stellar games, its going to take a hell of a lot for me to invest in their next offering. The wiiu had so much potential with its abundance of peripherals, but absolutely everything was so completely and utterly under utilized.

I still believe that the motion controls and touch screen has so much potential to do really cool shit, but its implementation has been bungled over and over.

And yea, I think the Gamecube was the last console of Nintendo that I sunk a lot of time into. Then again, I owned a 360 and a ps3 briefly that barely got any play time so take that as you will

>Super Mario Galaxy
>carpel tunnel the game
What? You don't even move your wrists! It's all your fingers or your arms.

I always have found the Galaxy's to be a step-down in terms of mechanics
Probably because of the wii-mote entirely

>mario 64 over sunshine
of all the wrongs you could have been
you chose wrong as fuck faggot

NES was great.
SNES was better.
N64 was worse than SNES but had 4/5 God-tier games
GC was worse in terms of God-tier games
Wii had the Mario Galaxy God-tier games and could play all Gamecube games + virtual console/Wiiware

Wii gets shit on a lot, but it's still under my TV with the PS4 and gets consistent use even now (mostly due to my Super Mario Kart addiction)

I haven't even bought a Wii U though.

I would have to write a roman to explain this, but basically Id say the Mario, Zelda, Mario Kart etc. games where more groundbreaking when they were released on N64.

Sure, they were more polished on GC but it missed out on the innovation.

On the other hand, games like Smash Melee got a huge benefit from the finetuning so I guess it depends on the game series

I'll never understand the hate for the Wii, given that it's got a stronger library than the N64 and Gamecube.

Like shit, Galaxy may not be as good as 64, but at least there's more than a dozen other games for the entire goddamn system.

...

F-Zero GX was incredible
As was Resident Evil 4

Only 2 God-tier games on GC I would say, unless Im forgetting some.

The WiiU is fine.

they peaked with the snes. but the gamecube was the last console where nintendo actually tried to make it good

Just a wild thought, but are you 18 or younger ?

Super Mario Galaxy was boring as shit. It gets rid of the adventure aspect that existed in 64 and Sunshine then replaces it with a jump from planet-to-planet mechanic filled with unmemorable platforming.

>carpel tunnel

that wasn't SMG. You were just masturbating too much because you were a disgusting teenager in the late 00s.

Sup Forums hates the wii because it had lots of shovelware ps2 gets a pass because Sup Forums was too young to remember I guess, it ended with a whimper, and Sup Forums didn't like skyward sword.

...

>stronger library than the N64 and Gamecube
die in a fucking fire kid

Gamecube CPU from 2001.
Nintendo overclocks it with 243mhx and calls it good enough for "nextgen" Wii.
Nintendo takes 3 Wii CPU and glue them together and calls it good enough for "nextgen" Wii U.

Nintendo has been a trash company ever since the Gamecube.

0 innovation, just recycling.

Same boat as you, my friend. I got stung by the shitty Zelda after shitty Zelda syndrome.

which Mario games have memorable platforming?

Shit guess I'm not playing F-Zero GX or RE4 now.

>Metroid Prime 3
>Fuck-ton of Resident Evil, if you're into rail-shooters.
>Donkey Kong Jungle Returns.

snes > n64 > gamecube > wii u > wii

i didnt add nes because i havent played enough games for it

PS2 gets a pass because it got just as many good games as bad, and it got more good games than Wii has total games

Sunshine is probably the worst Mario game after Mario Bros. 2.

SM64 was so much better, you'd wonder how Nintendo could fuck Sunshine up so badly. INvisible fucking walls. Damn.

Not him, but 3D World in my humble opinion

what games did the snes have?

What makes a person this contrarian?

>Sunshine
>Bad
how?

>Le kiddies like da wii maymay XDDD

Fuck off, newfag. Try judging a console on its library instead of its marketing.

The N64 doesn't even have 100 games worthy of being called mediocre. It has an extremely limited library with only a handful of truly excellent titles. I love it too, but it has a much weaker library than the Wii.

And apparently NES, SNES, and Playstation get a pass for the same reason.

>It got just as many good games as bad
Go back to school, Jimmy, you forgot the endless waves of pure, unfiltered dogshit on the system.

>last Nintendo was Wii/DS on release, whichever came first
>Only handhelds are Gameboy and DS
Still love the GC for Metroid, Smash Bros, Custom Robo, Bloody Roar and Pikmin.

Just how much have I missed out on? I see lots of fun games for the 3DS and Vita but never actually feel like getting a new handheld.

Hey, if we gave the N64 a pass back in the 90's for only having a dozen games, surely we can do the same now, right?

Oh, wait, we aren't nostalgic for them so it doesn't count. :^)

>Like shit, Galaxy may not be as good as 64

Galaxy is far better, user.

Go back and play SM64 on a N64, then play Super Mario Galaxy.

SM64 was and largely still is fantastic, but SMG trumps it on visuals, gameplay, mechanics and variety of levels.

Sup Forums is retarded and thinks that Sunshine isn't rehash enough to be fun

>definitely much more than Gamecube.
>He never played GameCube
I'm not mad you're retarded, I honestly just feel bad for you.

It's best to start with the Vita, then try out the 3ds afterwards.

You will realise most of the Sup Forums hype doesn't live up to its name.

Here are my picks for classics on each system, and when I say classics, I mean games that any dudebro will be able to talk to you about:
SNES- Super Mario World, LTTP, Donkey Kong Country
N64- Ocarina of Time, Goldeneye, Mario 64
Gamecube- Smash Melee, Metroid Prime
Wii-???
Wiiu- Mario Kart 8 maybe?

It's hard to describe when they "peaked" because they had multiple peaks. The NES was utterly dominant and revolutionary, the SNES was extremely good, the N64 was largely shit, the GC was a bit better but still didn't have enough games and the Wii had tons of 90s-style nip exclusives (2D platformers, arcade ports, RPGs, unique weird games etc) thanks to the fact that it was hot shit with normies. So the last time they peaked was with the Wii, and I doubt they'll ever have that much success again. Enjoy your shitty not-quite-a-PC "hardcore" shitboxes made by cynical non-game companies, you hated stuff like the Wii after all.

Gamecube > wii > n64 > snes

>Just a wild thought, but are you 18 or younger ?

No, I can't speak for the other user but I'm 32 and have owned every Nintendo system since the NES except the GameBoy Colour, 3DS and Wii U.

So you can fuck off with your " oh he only likes the Wii because he's underaged b&" shit.

golden eye was terrible

but it had the weakest mario/zelda games of any nintendo console until the 7th and 8th gens

>it got just as many good games as bad
I want to see an enumeration of 2000 good games on the PS2, since PS2 had ~4000 releases.

Any suggestions for vidja on the Vita that are worth a look?

>Super Mario Galaxy was boring as shit.

HAHA oh FUCK

I just want to be able to buy a gameboy and play zero mission and fusion.

I never got to play a metroid game :(

Off topic.

>wii over snes
Almost had it

Sunshine had memorable platforming. I can even remember the little filler missions like bathing the chain chomps in Pianta Village and the watermelon mountain mission in the Beach level.

Galaxy all I can remember is the reccuring missions that exist in each world, such as that shitty Boo Race.

there aren't any good games on the vita

Emulate and use a USB controller, dummy.

Most of Sup Forums's userbase is pleb-level shitters who only play popular games. They don't understand the value of a large quantity of unique, diverse games or how that was part of what made NES and SNES so special.

That's because they did. The NES practically invented the console gaming industry as it is today and all their succeeding platforms until the GC basically continued the conventions they set forth. Unfortunately they started gradually losing ground to the competitors (Sega, PlayStation and Xbox) until they just gave up and started pandering to casuals with the Wii.

We already know 2% of it is shit, because there's about 80 Singstar, DDR, and Beatmani games on the system.

/vr/ fuck off

>I'm 15 years old and played Goldeneye single player via composite out on an HDTV yesterday.
That's you.

the snes was a terrible system

Wii U was literally Wii with Dreamcast's VMU system.

>REEEEE STOP PICKING ON ME FOR ONLY PLAYING AAA GARBAGE

>Le kiddies like da wii maymay XDDD

You cant deny the influence of nostalgia and I tried to make my statement as unharming as possible so give me a break from your shitposting

Thanks for info, no need to be upset though

I owned every Nintendo console aswell and I enjoyed like 4 or 5 games which makes it a bad console in my opinion, thats why I asked

Fuck off, idiot. I had and still have a Gamecube.

It has Resident Evil 4 and F-Zero GX, and that's pretty much it.

Sunshine was wank.
Mario kart was wank.
Wind Waker and TP were pretty much wank.

REmake was good as was MGS Twin Snakes but I preferred the Playstation original.

You can fuck off. Wii has a greater number of God tier games than th Gamecube, and your opinion isn't worth shit to me.

*4 or 5 games on the Wii

Nintendo peaked with the DS

>it was the first shooter that I ever played so you cant say anything bad about it
every shooter on the 64 was terrible because the n64 never had a controller that could properly support the genre

Yup, I'd agree with this. GC was a little better than the n64 tho

No, you just didn't have friends growing up, so you don't understand why it deserves it's spot with Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time.

That would imply Doom 64 is a bad shooter, which is factually incorrect.

>Here are my picks for classics on each system, and when I say classics, I mean games that any dudebro will be able to talk to you about:
>SNES- Super Mario World, LTTP, Donkey Kong Country
Don't forget Super Mario Kart, Street Fighter 2 Turbo, F-Zero, Bomberman
>N64- Ocarina of Time, Goldeneye, Mario 64
Majora's Mask and Perfect Dark should get honourable mentions, as should MK64
>Gamecube- Smash Melee, Metroid Prime
What about Resident Evil 4, F-Zero GX?
>Wii-???
See list here >Wiiu- Mario Kart 8 maybe?
Maybe, I've never owned/played Wii U

>you can't play a shooter with an N64 pad

weeeew

because the shitty mega deadzone controllers that followed were so conducive for accuracy right?

I was talking about 3d shooters not 2.5d shooters
sigh

That just means it had a shit controller, dumbass.

>when the thread is a bunch of old fucks saying snes was the best

Honestly GC might've been the peak as far as consoles, but the 3DS has been pretty damn good so far and still going strong

Its peaked at NDS.
YOU'RE WRONG

Thought so, I bet you're the type of person who unironically thinks Fedora's Mask is the best game on N64.

>NSMB
>Skyward Sword

Also, Twilight Princess had a superior Gamecube version.

They peaked with the NES.

The Gamecube is a good console, though.

>No Sin and Punishment 2
>No Tatsunoko vs Capcom
>No Little King's Story
Shit list.

>Sunshine was wank.
>Mario kart was wank.
>Wind Waker and TP were pretty much wank.
okay good you didn't miss out you are retarded, I no longer feel bad for you. Thanks user :)

The GC sucked.

Damn thing had no games.

do you have something against facts?

The 3DS library is amazing.

name 10 good exclusives for it

Japan didn't like the N64 and Gamecube. That's when Nintendo died to me.

Amazingly overrated.
